Another Christmas Card!!!!

 Hi

Well, it's December tomorrow, Christmas is not far away and I've done no shopping - do you think I need to panic ?!!!

I have found the time to make another Christmas card though:

It fits into the following six challenges:

Cupcake Craft Challenges - Red & Green
Stamp With Fun - Xmas
Saturday Spotlight with Hidden Potential - Hats On
The Pink Elephant - Favourite Colouring Medium
The Corrosive Challenge Blog - Red & Green
Magnolia Down Under Challenge - Christmas Decoration / card

I used this beautiful Magnolia stamp, which I bought when I visited the NEC a few weeks back.  I stamped her using black Memento Ink and coloured her using my Copics, which are my most favourite colouring medium by far!!!  I then used some Distress Ink to soften the harsh white background slightly.

Recipe:

Stamp: Magnolia Tilda with Gift

Ink: Black Memento Ink Pad.  "Old Paper" Ranger Distress Ink

Colouring Medium: Copic Ciao & Sketch Markers

Papers: Red Gingham Paper - Cuddly Buddly.  Parcel Paper - Magnolia.  Tree Paper - Basic Grey.  Red & green card from my stash

Tools: Large circle & large scalloped circle Nesties.  Ellison Big Shot

Embellishments: Poinsettias from The Hobby House.  Red ribbons from my stash.

Thanks for stopping by today.

Hope you like it.

Christmas with Oakley

  
Hi

Just a quick post today to show you this card, which fits in with this week's Whiff Of Joy Challenge - "make a Christmas Card".

I've used this lovely image of Oakley from this year's winter collection and coloured him using my Copic Markers. 

The papers are by Bo Bunny and the ribbon is from my stash.

Thanks for stopping by.

Have a great weekend.

Hi

This simple Christmas Card fits three challenges :

Creative Card Crew - Favourite Things
Everybody Art Challenge - Christmas
Papertake Weekly - Christmas Crackers

Here's my card:

I've used this fabulous snowman, stamping him with Brilliance Ink in Meditteranean Blue and just using a little water to soften the lines in places.  I then ran this through my Cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder.

The snowflake is cut using Spellbinders Create a Flake  - this is my favourite die at the moment and I love using Twinklets Glass Glitter on it to give it a real frosty feel. 
The spotty paper is by Bo Bunny.

Thanks for stopping by today.

Copic Colour Challenge #41 - GDT Card

  
Hi

Guess who's a Guest Designer this week over at Copic Colour Challenge?   Yeah it's me!!! 
I love working with my Copic Markers and am honoured to be a Guest Designer for this week's challenge.

The colours this week were chosen by Beth and are:

There's a great prize on offer too,  Kimmie is very generously offering up 2 stamps of your choice from her fantabulous Kraftin' Kimmie Stamp range

Here's my card:

I used the Magnolia Tilda with Sunflower stamp, I think she suits these colours perfectly. 

Here's a close-up.

The papers are from MME Wild Asparagus Stack.
The sunflowers and swirls were cut using my Silhouette.
The ribbons, brads and butterfly charm are all from my stash.

So head on over to the Copic Colour Challenge and see what the rest of the talented Design Team have come up with, I'm sure you'll find plenty of inspiration there.
